Mechanical Assessment

AI-generated interpretation of this vehicle’s MOT record — not an official statement and not a substitute for an independent inspection.

The vehicle presents a stable roadworthiness profile with a remarkably consistent maintenance trend. The most recent inspection conducted in August 2025 at 77,440 miles resulted in a clean pass, indicating that the car currently meets all minimum safety standards. This follows a period of clean results over the last three years, suggesting that the vehicle has been maintained without significant recurring mechanical failures or structural degradation. At 13 years old, the recorded mileage of 77,440 miles is significantly below the national average, averaging to approximately 6,000 miles per annum. The data shows steady usage patterns, with an increase of 4,679 miles recorded between 2024 and 2025, and another 7,013 miles in the year prior to that. This relatively low mileage typically results in less wear on the drivetrain and engine components, though it can sometimes lead to the degradation of rubber-based seals and hoses if the vehicle sits for long periods between uses. The only recorded defect in the history occurred in August 2022 at 62,779 miles, where the tester flagged thin rear brake pads. The fact that subsequent tests in 2023, 2024, and 2025 showed no further brake issues suggests this was addressed and rectified. A buyer should still perform a physical inspection of the brake discs for surface rust or pitting, as low-mileage vehicles are prone to oxidation if not driven frequently. Given the age of the Civic, a thorough check of the chassis and suspension mounting for corrosion is also essential, as the MOT does not detect early-stage structural rust.
